Ayr Chosen as 'Tartan Touch' Hub

Scottish Rugby recently announced the clubs selected as hubs for their 'Tartan Touch' initiative this summer and Ayr RFC is among the list of newcomers.

The community based innitative which is derived from simple, non-contact rugby started last summer and was a real hit. Aimed at getting more individuals involved with rugby, last years 20 host clubs generated Â£14,000 and welcomed 1,800 individuals.

With ten new clubs, including Ayr, expanding the programme to 30 it is clear that this social game aimed at both adults and kids is expanding and providing a great opportunity for participants to develop fitness and make friends.
